Welcome back to the show! This week Schuyler and Sean talk about Nathan for You, politics, and the ethics, philosophy, and linguistics of binging media.

Also a quick redaction from the episode: We falsely reported that Alabama Senate GOP candidate Roy Moore won the election for that position. Turns out he didn’t. Thanks for doing the right thing for not only Alabama or the USA, but the world (like 50% of) Alabamans.
